This series features and AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing the
handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. Auto Standby
allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.

To protect you against mis-billed calls that might result from your phone being activated by other equipment, this
series has digital security, which automatically selects one of more than 10,00 0,000 digital
security codes for the handset and base. Digital Spread Spectrum Technology uses a wider frequency band than
standard digital transmissions. The result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended
range, and minimal interference from other cordless phones.

DC IN 9V

and to a standard 240VAC wall outlet. Connect
the AC adapter to a continuous power supply
(i.e., an outlet that is not controlled by a switch).

2) Set the base on a desk or tabletop, and place
the handset in the base unit. Place the base
unit close to the AC outlet so that you can
unplug the AC adapter easily.

3) Make sure that the charge LED illuminates. If
the LED does not illuminate, check to see that
the AC adapter is plugged in and the handset
makes good contact with the base charging
contacts.

4) After install the battery pack in the handset,
charge your handset for at least 15-20 hours
before plugging into the phone line.

5) Once the handset battery pack is fully charged,
connect the telephone line cord to the

TEL LINE

jack and to a telephone outlet. If your telephone
outlet isn't modular, contact your telephone
company for assistance.

!!Use only the

supplied [AAD­041S] AC adapter.
Do not use any
other AC adapter.

Do not place the
power cord where
it creates a trip
hazard or where it
could become
chafed and create
a fire or electrical
hazard.

[10]

!!Use only the

Uniden (BT-446)
rechargeable
battery pack
supplied with your
cordless
telephone.
Replacement
battery packs are
available. See our
website for
information.

www.uniden.com.au
www.uniden.co.nz

C. Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset

The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack.
The battery recharges automatically when the handset is placed in
the base unit. To maximize the charge capacity of your battery pack,
DO NOT plug the telephone cord into the base
unit and wall jack until the battery is fully charged.

1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use
the finger indention for a better grip) and slide the
cover downward to remove.

2) Turn the battery pack so that the connector with the
red and black wires is near the jack inside the battery
compartment. Match the connector's wire colors to the
polarity label in the battery compartment (the connector
notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way).
Push the battery pack connector into the jack until it
clicks into place.

3) Make sure you have a good connection by gently pulling
on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the battery
jack will remain in place.

4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and
slide it upwards until it clicks into place.

waiting tone while you are on a call, and the Caller ID data is displayed. To accept the
waiting call, press on the handset. Additionally, you can dial a number stored in
the Caller ID list or save data to your phonebook locations.

Important:

Memory locations for Caller ID messages and phonebook locations (including Speed Dials)

ID message is not stored when you have stored 100 of the phonebook locations. When you
have stored all 100 of the phonebook locations and Caller ID messages in total, the earliest
Caller ID message is overwritten.
